Today I swapped out a 2 cm carbon spacer I had under my stem for an aluminum one. I did this because I read somewhere that carbon can compress along that plane. And I needed a different size anyway. Well, when I took out the old one, it was lopsided! It looks like it wasn't cut squarely. I've been sprinting a lot, and when I do I *really* pull on the bars, but come on!
Surely I couldn't have had the thing in there with that angle, could I? I've looked at the thing a thousand times, so I would've noticed if it wasn't seated very well onto the headset cup and/or bottom of the stem.
Check it out!
